Module Indicative Content
This module is based primarily on independent study and placement work. It provides students with the opportunity to apply their learning from Semester 1 and other Semester 2 modules to a practical setting. Students will have the opportunity to plan, undertake, and evaluate a small practical participatory arts project in a community-based setting.
Module Learning Strategies
This module incorporates three inter-related learning strategies. Tutor- led workshops will be used for the consideration of core issues and key tools and techniques relating to developing your own participatory arts project. The tutorials will allow discussion of the individual projects and portfolios that students are undertaking. The independent study will allow the development and implementation of a small participatory arts project and the completion of the portfolio.
